/* This isn't exactly what you want but you may be able to use it or build from it... my old Hello World program. one of the first programs I got to work. It's only job is to print Hello World on the screen. I added sc.AddMessageToLog(); to the bottom so it will print Hello World to your Message log since your code had a text output to file. hope it helps you. Ive refered to it often. I only Remote Build my files so if you are using a local compiler, I can't help you there. Good luck */
